Hey all.
I’m a 25 year old male married with one two year old. I have been a firefighter since I graduated college in 2014 and just recently got my paramedic license. Since I have finished all my clinicals and started doing more work on the medical side of things I have realized I want med school to be my end game. My only problem is I don’t have a clue how I go about it.
I graduated with a bachelors in fire science with a 3.14 GPA (I didn’t apply myself at all the first two years and had to try to pull myself out of the hole I dug my last two years). I am just curious if I need to go back and retake gen ed classes to start the med school process or what I need to do? Also how financial situations work during med school. Right now I am working overtime every chance I get to save up some money because I didn’t know if it was possible to work and go through med school. I’m sorry if this isn’t clear cut and easy to understand so feel free to ask me any questions. Thank you.
Here are my gen eds I have taken. I was also curious if I have to retake any and which ones I still would have to take before I think about applying. Thanks.
